So had my training on my pool equipment yesterday, and after the guy left I covered the pool and didn't use it until this morning. Opened it up, noticed that the water turned a slight tinge of green.
Also noticed debris at the bottom, so thought I'd vacuum. Hooked up the vacuum, nothing seemed to be sucking up. Then increased the speed on my Hayward VS Pump, still nothing. Then noticed the jets weren't pushing water.
Turned the pump off, checked the filter basket, dumped out a bit of debris (there was water in the chamber as well). Started it back up, but while it's making a noise, it doesn't seem to actually be pushing water through the system?
Anything I can check?
Will have to check the chemistry of the pool, the PPM is 3100 for salt (guy said should be around 3200) so that seems okay. Not sure if I'll need acid or baking powder...hmmm...so much new stuff to learn.
